Essie Hope enjoyed some Apple Dumplings while the big kids played Corn Hole.
Me and my handsome hubby!
A few Fridays back , Abby had a volleyball game in Asheville. We decided to make a day of it and stopped in Morganton at the Apple Orchard that we have went to for years. It was a beautiful day and the kids had so much fun picking apples. It sure doesn't take long to pick a basket with all this help! Abby's teammates and their families met up with us there and we snapped a quick picture some of the girls and their siblings
After we left the apple orchard, we were early for the game, so right before we got to the gym, we spotted a little ice cream shop on the side of the road. I cannot even remember the name of the place now! They had some yummy gelato though! It was a quirky kind of place, but it was a perfect way to spend an hour.
We went from there to the game and here is a picture of Abby and her middle school team mates. We have been so blessed to have had a good season with such sweet girls, a great coach and awesome parents. The girls have had a blast together learning the game of volleyball and making friendships.
We left our house around 9am and got home around 10pm! A very full day, but such a fun fall memory!
The Dixie Classic Fair is a tradition that has been around this area for a loooong time. I went back when I was in college and we take the kids every year. This year, however was the first time we entered things in the fair. Abby won a blue ribbon for a stamped art and a couple of third place ribbons for sewing and art. It was so much fun and of course..all that yummy food!
